Discover the pure, luxurious warmth of our 100% Non-Superwash Merino yarn, sourced from the Shaniko Wool Company—a branded and certified program of American Merino wool. This exquisite yarn is crafted from the finest, untreated merino wool, derived from Merino and Merino/Rambouillet sheep raised in the Western U.S.

Our 100% Non-Superwash Merino is spun into a beautifully textured 3-ply yarn. The three plies not only enhance the yarn’s durability but also add a subtle texture that brings depth and dimension to your projects. The natural lanolin in this yarn provides a gentle, slightly springy feel while improving its ability to regulate temperature and wick moisture. Each skein offers 450 yards of yarn per 100 grams, providing ample length for a variety of projects.

In addition to our non-superwash merino, we also offer the Shaniko Cashmere Blend—a luxurious mix of 80% Fine Shaniko Wool and 20% Cashmere. This blend combines the softness and warmth of merino with the unparalleled softness of cashmere, resulting in a 3-ply yarn that delivers both elegance and comfort. Like the non-superwash merino, it provides 490 yards per 100 grams and adds a touch of sophistication to your knitting or crocheting experience.

Perfect for those who appreciate the authenticity of traditional wool and the luxury of cashmere, both our Shaniko Wool and Shaniko Cashmere Blend embrace a full range of natural colors and textures. Whether you choose the classic merino or the indulgent cashmere blend, each base ensures that your projects will be defined, warm, and beautifully textured.
